Proverbs 4:10-23

Bishops(i) 10 Heare my sonne, and receaue my wordes, and the yeres of thy life shalbe many 11 I haue shewed thee the way of wysdome, & led thee into the right pathes 12 So that if thou goest in them, there shall no straitnesse hinder thee: & when thou runnest, thou shalt not fall 13 Take fast holde of doctrine, and let her not go: kepe her, for she is thy life 14 Come not in the pathe of the vngodlye, and walke not in the way of the wicked 15 Abhorre it and go not therein, depart aside, and passe ouer by it 16 For they sleepe not except they haue done mischiefe: and sleepe is taken from them, vntyll they haue done harme 17 For they eate the bread of wickednes, and drinke the wine of robberie 18 The path of the righteous shineth, as the light that is euer bryghter and bryghter vnto the perfect day 19 But the way of the vngodly is as the darkenesse, they knowe not where they fall 20 My sonne marke my wordes, and encline thyne eare vnto my sayinges 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes, but kepe them euen in the middest of thyne heart 22 For they are life vnto those that finde them, and health vnto all their bodyes 23 Kepe thyne heart with all diligence, for out of it issueth lyfe
